Oogie Boogie Posted October 21, 2017 Report Share Posted October 21, 2017 Fancy yourself a gambling man? Well, I would hope you brought your "lucky" dice, but we won't be using any of those in my game! I'm a gambling boogieman myself, though that doesn't mean I don't cheat to win. But, SOMEBODY stole all my loaded dice and my trick cards, so we'll have to just use the regular ones and hope for the best (for me of course, not you). So, how does my game work? Simple! I've waited to post mine for the simple reason that you have to pay an entry fee! Give Oogie at least one ticket, and pick your poison between the dice or the cards. If you win, you'll get double your ticket wager, but if you lose, all those tickets you just bet go to me. What can everyone's favorite boogieman do with tickets, you may ask? Why, nothing! But you won't have them, and that's good enough for me. Let's talk about the games, shall we? [spoiler=Dice Game]Fancy the dice, do you? Good choice! Oogie's dice game is ever so simple. You roll two dice, and I roll two dice. Whoever rolls higher wins. A game so easy, even the mayor can play it![spoiler=Card game] More of a cards man, are you? I suppose that's what happens when you visit a website meant for some card game marketed for the wee ones. Now, under normal circumstances, this would be a regular ol' poker game, but since I can't imagine half of you having the brains for actual poker, we'll be changing the rules up a bit. We'll each get our hand (that's five cards), and one opportunity to get rid of any cards we don't want in our hand. Then those cards get replaced, and whoever has the better hand wins. Since I don't want any confusion on what types of hands you may get, let's talk about the hands you can get, from worst to best. High card - If you can't even manage a pair or better, just use whatever your highest-value card is.Pair - Two cards with the same valueTwo pair - It's two pairs, can't you read?Three of a kind - Three cards of the same valueStraight - Five cards in a sequenceFull House - A three of a kind, but the other two cards are a pairFour of a kind - All four cards of the same value Ah, and before anyone asks, aces are low unless it's for a straight. Also, we won't be counting flushes (not even royal flushes) as hands; I'm sure just getting a decent hand will be enough of a strain on you that you shouldn't worry about what suit your cards are. That's the only bone I'll be throwing. Let the ticket gambling commence! If you want to play, just tell me how many tickets you'll be wagering, and if you'd rather play with dice or cards.

Oogie Boogie Posted November 1, 2017 Author Report Share Posted November 1, 2017 I'll trade in the 3, the 9, and Ace.Alright then! NEW CARDS:3 > 59 > 9A > 5 YOUR HAND:5, 5, 9, 10, 10 (Two Pair, 10 high) OOGIE'S HAND:8, 10, 10, Q, Q (Two Pair, Queen high) Looks like your risk-taking didn't pay off this time. I'll be taking those six tickets now. Since we're closing up shop however, take one ticket on the house, compliments of a fellow gambler, for trying your luck and playing both games. Oooh, didn't see this event before. Hope it is not too late to play! Wanna wager 5 tickets on a card game :DYou're a bit late for that, my boy. We're already closing up; my time here has all but passed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
